Young Block Mandale or YBM had 17 pts 12 rebounds, 5 assists, and 2 blocks in a win tonight. Playing well and contributing off the bench.
Too bad he got hurt before the season. This is the Landale that we all deserved. He's playing amazing in his role.
Landale was a decent contract almost turning bad....... Timeline is too bad....wished he was 23 or 24......and that would be on time with everyone else. Better than nothing I guess.
I made fun of him earlier in the season. I am now deservedly eating crow…and it tastes just like chicken, for the most part.
I really liked the contract when is was signed. Then like everybody else saw him perform like dogs**t and thought of it as no more than an expiring. He's an excellent rotation player and a good contract.
I really enjoyed that end of the game back and forth between him and Jalen. Jock set the screen, Jalen got the switch and ultimately missed the shot, BUTTTTTT jock also got the switch, grabbed the offensive board and put it in while drawing the foul. And you know what i loved? Not that play, but how he looked straight at Jalen and said something of the effect (in my head)of "I GOT YOU. Shoot your shot, I trust you and if you miss ill clean that **** up for you."
Lmao Adams plays and gives Jock a run for his ...well....small sum of money. I think Adams will be healthy enough for 25 minutes per game, how they handle Landale and Adams remains to be seen. Adams if healthy is still too valuable to be a 3rd string Center so they might cut one of them loose.
